Below is a listing of Human Origins Initiative events. Find details about event location, time, and cost (if any) by clicking on that particular event.

We will be updating this event listing about every three months: in March, June, September, and December.

We currently have three regularly scheduled events every month: two Scientist is In programs and one HOT Topic program. Please check the schedule of individual events to see how holidays may impact these events. In addition to these regularly scheduled events, we have occasional lectures, panel discussions, and other public events.

THE SCIENTIST IS IN: Tuesdays, bi-weekly (usually the 1st and 3rd week of the month) from 11am-1pm. The Scientist Is In program provides opportunities for museum visitors to have informal conversations with scientists facilitated by human evolution-related objects, and is not a formal lecture program. Drop in and join the conversation!

HOT (Human Origins Today) TOPICS: Fridays, monthly (usually the last or second-to-last Friday of the month) from 4-5pm, either focusing on a science or science/society topic). This program is an informal discussion among experts and museum visitors. The HOT Topic program provides opportunities for museum visitors to have informal conversations with experts, and is not a formal lecture program. Drop in and join the conversation!

PLEASE CHECK BACK REGULARLY AS THE DETAILS, DATES, AND TIMES OF OUR PROGRAMS OCCASIONALLY CHANGE DUE TO THE AVAILABILITY OF PARTICIPANTS AND OTHER UNFORSEEN CIRCUMSTANCES.
